7 ASSEMBLY AND INITIAL SET-UP For your safety and convenience, the Pure Fitness Mini-Stepper has a factory welded frame and ships to you pre-assembled. To complete the assembly of your Stepper follow the simple steps outlined below. 1. Fit the Step Arm Height Adjustment Knob (18) into the hole in the front of the Main Frame and turn it Clockwise + until you feel some resistance. DO NOT fully tighten this knob. 2. Remove the Battery Compartment Cover from the rear of the Exercise Monitor. Place the batteries into the Battery Compartment, and replace the Battery Compartment Cover. 3. Connect the Exercise Monitor Sensor Wire (30) into the connector input on the rear of the Exercise Monitor. 4. Slide the assembled Monitor onto the Exercise Monitor Mount. 5. Adjust the Step Height on your Mini Stepper. For initial set-up, a step height of approximately 6 is advisable. To do this, use one hand to push down on one Step Arm Foot plate (26), so it is fully depressed. While holding this step down, turn the Step Arm Height Adjustment Knob in a Clockwise + direction, allowing the other Step Arm Foot plate to rise, until it is at a height of approximately 6 above the rear stabilizer. 6. Attach Stretch Cords to the Main Frame by clipping the Stretch Cord hooks to the 2 welded attachment loops on the front stabilizer bar. RESISTANCE AND STEP HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT The Hydraulic Cylinders on your Mini-Stepper are single acting, and their resistance levels have been configured and set in the production process. To intensify your workout, increase the height of the pedals by turning the Step Arm Height Adjustment Knob in a Clockwise + direction. To decrease the intensity of your workout, decrease the height of the pedals by turning the Step Arm Height Adjustment Knob in a Counter-clockwise - direction.

9 EXERCISES To improve your stamina, strength and improve your health, medical methods determining the most efficient amount of training specifically for your age, weight, height, and physical condition should always be followed. If you have not been physically active for an extended period of time and to also avoid potential health risks, always consult a physician before starting any exercise regimen. Warm-up Before every training you should warm-up for 5~10 minutes. Here you can do some stretching and training with low resistance. Cool down To introduce an effective cool-down of the muscles and the metabolism the intensity should be drastically decreased during the last 5~10 minutes. Stretching is also helpful for the prevention of muscle aches. (SEE WARM-UP/COOL DOWN EXERCISES ON NEXT PAGES.) Training session (With or without Stretch Cords) If not using the Stretch Cords during your exercise, make sure that these cords are completely out of the way of the moving parts on the Stepper, and will not interfere with its normal use. The time-length of your training session can be calculated with the following general guidelines for a normal, healthy individual: Daily training: approx min. per session 2-3 x per week: approx min. per session Once per week: approx min. per session Even after a short period of regular exercise you will notice that the sessions will be continuously easier and you will feel more fit during your normal day. Choose fixed hours for your training session and do not start training too aggressively.

WARM UP/COOL DOWN EXERCISES A successful exercise program consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise, and a cooldown.

Warming up is an important part of your workout, and should begin every session.

At the end of your workout, repeat these exercises to reduce sore muscle problems.

10 WARM UP/COOL DOWN EXERCISES A successful exercise program consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise, and a cooldown. Do the entire program at least two and preferably three times a week, resting for a day between workouts. After several months, you can increase your workouts to four or five times per week. Warming up is an important part of your workout, and should begin every session. It prepares your body for more strenuous exercise by heating up and stretching out your muscles, increasing your circulation and pulse rate, and delivering more oxygen to your muscles. At the end of your workout, repeat these exercises to reduce sore muscle problems. We suggest the following warm-up and cool-down exercises: Inner Thigh Stretch Sit with the soles of your feet together with your knees pointing outward. Pull your feet as close into your groin as possible. Gently push your knees towards the floor. Hold for 15 counts. Hamstring Stretch Sit with your right leg extended. Rest the sole of your left foot against your right inner thigh. Stretch toward your toe as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts. Relax and then repeat with left leg extended. Head Roll Rotate your head to the right for one count, feeling the stretch up the left side of your neck. Next, rotate your head back for one count, stretching your chin to the ceiling and letting your mouth open. Rotate your head to the left for one count, and finally, drop your head to your chest for one count. Shoulder Lift Lift your right shoulder up toward your ear for one count. Then lift your left shoulder up for one count as you lower your right shoulder.

11 WARM UP/COOL DOWN EXERCISES Calf-Achilles Stretch Lean against a wall with your left leg in front of the right and your arms forward. Keep your right leg straight and the left foot on the floor; then bend the left leg and lean forward by moving your hips toward the wall. Hold, then repeat on the other side for 15 counts Toe Touch Slowly bend forward from your waist, letting your back and shoulders relax as you stretch toward your toes. Reach down as far as you can and hold for 15 counts. Side Stretch Open your arms to the side and continue lifting them until they are over your head. Reach your right arm as far upward toward the ceiling as you can for one count. Feel the stretch up your right side. Repeat this action with your left arm.

12 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Question: The monitor is not working, what can I do? Answer: IN MOST CASES WHERE THERE IS AN APPARENT FAILURE OF THE MONITOR, IT IS DUE TO THE IMPROPER ATTACHMENT OF THE CABLE CONNECTION. PLEASE ENSURE THAT THE PLUG IN THE REAR OF THE MONITOR IS SECURE. YOU SHOULD ALSO MAKE SURE THAT THE BATTERIES ARE IN WORKING ORDER. Question: Is there any maintenance I need to do for my Stepper? Answer: YOU SHOULD ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK TO MAKE SURE ALL YOUR BOLTS ARE TIGHT AND SECURE, ENSURE THAT THE HYDRAULIC CHAMBERS ARE NOT LEAKING, AND THAT THE STRETCH CORDS ARE SECURE IN THEIR HOUSING BEFORE BEGINNING USE. TO CLEAN THE METAL AND PLASTIC COMPONENTS, A GENERAL HOUSEHOLD CLEANER CAN BE USED, BUT PLEASE BE SURE TO FULLY DRY THE STEPPER AND FOOT PLATES BEFORE USE. NEVER USE ANY KIND OF POLISH OR LUBRICANT ON THE FOOT PLATES. Question: Something was missing from the packaging, I need to purchase a replacement Stretch Cord or other part or I discovered a damaged piece. What should I do? Answer: CONTACT CUSTOMER SERVICE AT: customerservice@puregbi.com or by calling YOU MUST HAVE YOUR PROOF OF PURCHASE AND/OR ORDER CONFIRMATION AVAILABLE TO BE CONSIDERED FOR WARRANTY REPLACEMENT.
